I'm @ennrfann.

Delilah A. King was born in Clinton coun-
ty, o., May %. 1928. October IA, 1841, she
became the wife of William Betterton. One
son and one daughter were born to them and
still survive. Some twenty years ago the
writer had the pleasure of receiving them
into the Church at Farmers Station, since
which they never faltered in their devotion
or wavered in their faith that the good Fa-
Their would ultimately bring all his children
home to enjoy sweet rest in heaven. July
u, 1885, Br. Betterton left the earthly home
and at 1880 P. M, July 20, 1887, our good sis
ter followed him to that home where loved
ones join to separate no more. For them we
can truly say they adorned their profession
with well-ordered lives, teaching the world
that Christianity is not only to be believed,
but is a mighty power for good all through
life. Blessed be the memory of Brother and
Sister Betterton to the son and daughter
through the faith they cherish. ". s. B.

CHARITY.

Having announced his warning in general
terms. JESUS proceeds to enumerate particu-
lar acts of righteousness and to illustrate by
familiar examples. Among the pious Jews
aims, prayer and fasting were esteemed the
highest ar I most efficacious of religious ex-
ercises. These the disciples were expected to
perform. But they we're cautioned not TO 90
as did the hypocrites-mere actors or pre-
tenders, who, when they bestowed their char
tiles, made an ostentatious parade and dis
play of their doings that they might receive
the applause of the multitude. Their meth
cd of gaining reputation for pious DeneVo-
lence and charity is iguratatively described
by reference to the manner OF announcing
public events, or the assembling OF the peo-
pie for religious and other exercises An
ciently the trumpet was employed, as the Dell
is now used. The "hypocrites" made pup
lie display and announcement of their char
liable deeds, that they might have the praise
of men; and this reward which they sought
was the only one they received. They mad
not the feeling of charity lloveI IN tneir
hearts. but selfishness and insincerity, and
80 missed the real blessing of the truly char
liable. st. Paul announced the principle IN
yolyed in JESUS caution to his disciples,
when he declared: Though bestow all my
goods to feed the poor, and have not
love, it profits me nothing" Il Corinthians
xiii. 81. the disciples were advised by their
Master to bestow their charities in modest
and quiet way: "Let not your left hand
know what your right hand does" The al
fusion of the figure employ ed may be the
contributions deposited in the aims chests
placed in the synagogues and Temple. Ihe
contributors might make their offerings OF
charity without display, and even unobserv-
ed, as they passed in or out of their places OF
worship. Or the figure may merely describe
the image of person passing one who ID IN
need and with his right hand bestowing char
ity in 30 quiet way that, 80 to speak, his left
hand is ignorant of what is done. Though
done in private, the Father, who is repre-
scented as being in the secret place, will see
and fully recompense the good deed. He
who knoweth the secrets of the heart will
richly reward all who do righteously with
loving purpose, even though their good deeds
may be unobserved by men. The teaching
and example of JESUS do not condemn pub
lie charities, nor even the public announce
ment and approval of benevolent deeds, but
proclaim that such acts should not be per-
formed to gain notoriety or applause. The
force of JESUS teaching is not that all benev-
olence shall be literally secret, but that no
benevolence should be ostentatious. The
evil condemned is not in letting people see
ones gifts, or in permitting them to be an
nounced and publicly approved, but in CIV
ing in order that they may see, and for the
sake of praise. JESUS warmly commended
the example of the poor widow who publicly
bestowed her two mites in the Temple, be-
cause it was the sincere expression of piouf
and loving heart.

PRAYING.

JESUS gave the same advice and caution
concerning prayer and alms-giying, employ
ing similar illustrations. Stated times were
employed for private devotions by the pious
Jews. The hypocrites, who wore mask OF
piety, a cloak of religion, for popular effect
only, were accustomed to appear in the syn
agogues and public places in the streets, that
they might be seen standing with outstretch-
ed arms and uplifted hands praying. The
Pharisees appear to have been careful to be
in these public places at the time for private
prayer, that they might display their acts of
devotion and be praised for their piety. They
had the recompense which they sought,-a
reputation for being very pious. But JESUS
condemned their piety as insincere and hyp-
ocriticsl, that was not approved and blessed
by GoD. The disciples we're instructed not
to adopt the motive or initiate the manner of
their praying; but were rather to enter pri-
vate room, and with closed door, were to
pray in secret, that Con who is present, to
see in the most secret place might recon-
pense them. The real reoompense of all
true prayer is the sense of GoD's presence

GIVE THE CHILDREN GOOD

Remember the happiness of your own
childhood and ask yourself what earth
contains that could purchase from you
the blessed memory of those golden
days. That never-to-be-torgotten excur-
sion to the beach, those glorious noun
tain rides, the picnics, birthday parties,
Christmas surprises, the romps and mer-
ry games, the gleeful rides on papa 6
back, the quiet talks and delightful sto
ries of mamma, the prayers at her knee
and the good night kiesses-how these
memories cling to you as only childhood
memories can cling, and how you bless
the father and mother who made your
earliest years one dream Of bliss!
1t takes but little to give child
pleasure, and the longest life is not long
enough to Danish the recollection. Then
store the children's minds with happy
memories while you may. Soon, too soon,
their childhood days will be past, and
your loved ones must go out into their
several ways to meet their share OF life's
stern discipline. Happy will it be for
them if, amid all their perplexing duties
disappointments, joys and sorrows, they
may carry with them the cherished men,
DRY of happy childhood. And happy
will it be for you if in their young and
impossible years, you have forged a
chain of love to bind their hearts to

not rust, life cannot sever, and death can
only strengthen.
Some one has said, SIT is not the things
we do for our children that make them
love us most, but the things we do with
them" Then let us enter into their
frolics, their griefs, their studies. thoughts
and aims. Let us be one with them from
their earliest years at the same time
guiding, helping and training them in
the upward way, shat when they are old
they may not depart from it." Then il
we should linger till life's shadows grow

and the peace and strength of soul which it
brings or produces.
The disciples were also cautioned against
the manner of praying practiced among the
Gentiles, people of other nations, who wor-
shipped idols, and who repeated forms of
words for long time, and with noisy DEM
onstration, apparently believing that their
gods could be induced to hear and answer
them by long and weary opportunities. For
examples of heather prayers see Kings
xiii. 26; Acts xix. "a. The reason JESUS gives
for not initiating this form of prayer is that
GoD our Father knows the needs of His chill
dren before they ask Him. The same is
true in the earthly relation. Wise parents
know their children's needs. But their
knowledge does not hinder their willingness
or even desire to have their children ask
them for what they wish, or feel the need of,
nor make the feeling and experience of the
need valueless to tho children. Neither
does ii prevent the parents pleasure in grant,
ing the needed things for which their chill
dren have asked. The utility of prayer is
not to inform COP of our needs, but to exer-
else the soul in the sense of its needs, which
He knows better than we do, and who is more
willing to supply all our real needs than we are
to ask Him. True prayer is the SOULS sense
or feeling of Divine need.
prayer is the souls sincere desire,
Uttered or unexpressed."
His injunction is that every prayer shall
be sincere and genuine; one which the Fa-
Their who sees in secret shall discern to be
earnest and true; one which shall be made to
Him and not to human audience. An un-
sophisticated reporter once commended
public prayer as lone OF the most eloquent
ever made to Boston audience" Public
prayers are not to be " eloquent" but SIM
pie; not seeking human praise, but the help
of the Divine Spirit. And such, being truth
full expressions of the secret desire, coming
from the secret chamber of the heart, which
no man can read, but which the Father hears,
bring abundant blessing Req. @. L. DenlG-
rest, d. d., s. S. Helper, February, 1880.
The Divine needs of the soul cannot be
truly answered till they are felt and mani
tested by heavenward desire. By prayer the
heart is opened to receive the Fathers bless
ing. AS all trus prayer is spiritual desire, 30
all real answer to prayer is spiritual blessing.
Public religious exercises, and formal, and
even importuning prayers, are not condemn
ed by JESUS; but privete devotions in public
places for display and praise are declared by
him to merit no heavenly reward.

PIETY WITHOUT DISPLAY.
Matthew vi. 1-15.j
Matthew vi. 1-15. ]
RIGHTEOUSNESS.

From the last lesson we learned that JESUS
demanded of his disciples higher obedi-
ence of the law than was practiced even py
the Scribes and Pharisees. he explained
the nature of the righteousness pertaining 10
his kingdom by illustrations from the teacn-
inos of the Scribes and the practice OF the
Jewish courts, enforcing the commandments.
The examples given pertain to the sixth, sew
entb and third commandments, and the
manner of dealing with offenders generally
". Ply. The exceeding Righteousness which
he demanded was shown to be rightness OF
heart toward the law and all offenders: THESE
EXAMPLES we're followed by others, illustrat-
inc the practice of the Pharisees. AS the
most righteous classes of the Jews were Sc
lected for comparison, SO the righteous oeeos
and ceremonies esteemed most highly among
them were selected as examples for illustra-
ton. The practice of the Jews applied the
law only to the outward conduct. JESUS
would apply it to the inward motive as well.
To illustrate the quality and value OF mo-
tiyes, he described the practice OF pretentious
Pbarisees when performing their most val
ued religious duties and ceremonies. Inese
were almsRiving, prayer and fasting. Elk
amples of the first two are included IN our
Lesson.
"Take care" he says, that you do not
perform your religious duties righteousness
in the presence of men, to be seen by them,
otherwise you will obtain no reward from
your Father who is in heaven" Before ne
had called the disciples the light of the world,
and exhorted them to "let the light of their
example shine before men, that they might
see their good works and glorify their Father
in heaven" In doing this he now warns. them
against wrong motive and the danger OF
missing the heavenly [spirituall reward. IL
may be proper and highly useful to perform
personal religious duties in public, but not TO
be seen, that is, with purpose of being seen.
The warning of JESUS is not against public
acts of righteousness, but against selfish mo-
tives. In the kingdom of COP all rewards OF
righteousness are determined by the motive,
it being reign of the spiritual. Sincerity
and love should always characterize our con-
duct, whether public or private. The Pharl-
sees appear to have been careful to perform
all their religious duties and ceremonies IN
the most public places that they might be
seen and praised for their piety and right
eousness.
